Population and Environment Interactions

Population and environment interactions explore how human populations affect and are affected by their surroundings. This includes studying how factors like population growth, density, and distribution impact natural resources, air and water quality, and land use. Conversely, environmental conditions such as climate, geography, and natural disasters can influence migration patterns, population health, and community development. By examining these interactions, spatial demography seeks to understand the balance between people and their environments, helping policymakers make informed decisions for sustainable development and resource management.
